Hi Caveman,
Welcome to the Loonyzone, certainly is a late one , but still probably 8 months before it finished......LOL.
Ref security, if you put in a search ( top rh corner ) and set the " newer than " box of the last few months you will be deluged with info.
But as a quick line up................
Tracker: Skytag £100 then £7 per month from paddocks
Diskloc
Maybe a pedal box. X eng get good reviews, but they are updating their unit at the moment
A good alarm for the noise.
Oh, and Piccies , we like piccies..............
Cheers

Welcome to lz, mate!
Where in Kernow?I dont know much about late models, would guess that would have fairly serious alarms and immobilisers as standard. But there are all kinds of aftermarket devices available. Mechanical, like pedal locks and disclok for steering etc. Plus various satellite trackers and recovery schemes.
Forum search and google search are your friends!

Wasson pard and welcome
Thanks for the feedback - yes it's got a factory alarm etc fitted but thought additional security might be worth the investment?Welcome to lz, mate!

Will continue to research as I now know there's loads of options?
I'm on the outskirts of Redruth BTW

Hi again .......looking for advice on my wheel / tyre combination - dealer fitted saw tooth alloys but previous owner put on General Grabber AT tyres which I love. Problem is i am experiencing quite strong wheel wobble on A30 above about 50 mph?Almost a neighbour, I live outside Hayle, just a few minutes down the bypass!
And a good friend, Martyn 110, is a Druth boy born and bred!
I've taken it back to the dealer to sort but they are blaming the tyres! Any thoughts ?

Dont know anything about alloys, I always have steels. And I doubt if the tyres are doing that, Grabbers are a reputable tyre, and well proven.
Are you sure the wheel nuts are tight, and panhard rod, swivels, track rod ends and suspension bushes are all good?

I wouldn't have thought wheel wobble is down to the tyre, just out of interest what's the tyre pressure like
It's only done 3k from new so I doubt anything is worn out? It's with a main dealer but despite the fact they say they've checked everything and also fitted a new steering damper the wobble remains?
Will see what they try and fob me off with tomorrow? Thanks for advice and confirmation about the Grabbers which I do particularly like !

there's a thought ??? I have no idea ? Where can I find out the best advised pressures ?

Easiest way on something like that is to swap the wheels for another good known set.
I know it is a PITA , but it closes that argument one way or the other.

I guess that's a good option? Thanks

Apologies, I didnt realise it was that new. There is always the possibility that a defective tyre might have slipped through quality control, or that one has been badly fitted.
And as Jake says, pressures may be uneven. Alloy wheels and tubeless tyres can weep air round the rims.

One thing you have not said that I can see,
Have you had them balanced?
Also,
have you tried rotating the tyres , F to B? have you checked to make sure you do not have mud anywhere on the inside of the wheels? Is this a new issue , or has it always done it?
Why does the dealer say it is tyres? they must have an argument for it?
Cheers

Thanks for the comments - dealer now agreed to change all tyres so I'll wait and see ?
Not really I don't think but as they have agreed to replace all tyres I'll see what they come up with? Fingers crossed I'll soon be in for a much better ride?
Oh sor
oh - sorry yes they've been re balanced twice ??
